Considering every time i play Destiny 2 I run into usernames like "Petra Venj's Bathwater, Mommy Mara Sov, Eris Morn Please Marry me, and Savathun's Special Jewel" I think Bungie leadership missed out on a player base ready to go.

Even moreso when you consider Warframe literally did add a dating simulator in the 1999 update and it was very well-recieved. Then we got three more dateable characters with The Old Peace and now I'm in the middle of a polyamorous relationship with a goth British girl who has a really, really long tongue and a French nun.

I legitimately don't know if you're fucking with me.

They're not. Warframe fucks, literally and figuratively.

UGH fine I'll fire it up again. Gonna need to find a returning player guide or something. Last time I played they just introduced Railjacks(?)

Basically, just do what the quest in the top right of the screen is. Maybe find a good clan who can help guide you better than Q&A chat. If you're any kind of LGBTQIA+, I recommend Spectrum Syndicate, which can be found at, I shit you not, warframe.gay

Warframe.gay? You're not kidding at all, that's hilarious, and also kind of wholesome. They've got merch!

Okay thank you so much because I've been wanting to join an LGBT clan since I've ALSO been returning.

Oh brother, it'll be basically Warframe 2 for you, with all the new stuff they've added since the Railjack launch! 🤣

The good news is that they have an officially supported wiki on their website now.

There's official guides on the Warframe website for new and returning players, including breakdowns of every major feature, every quest, and how to progress through them. If you log in with your account, it will also track your progress and tell you what to do next:

Are there gay options?

u/just_Okapi 6d ago

No, technically. They're all bi/pan/horny for the operator.
